Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Do you recognize that the hypotenuse here has the length 22 and that the opposite side is the unknown (x)? The angle is 21 degrees.
This is a perfect application of the tangent function:
tan 21 deg = opp / adj = opp / 22 = x / 22
tan 21 deg = 0.384 so x would be 22 tan 21 deg, or
x = 22*(0.384)
= 8.45 (answer)
Your answer should be 6043.99
Answer:
23,230
Step-by-step explanation:
230 is ten times larger than 23, and if you add them together is it 253
Steve ran 11 miles
let the distance Steve ran be x
Then distance Kevin ran is x + 4 ( 4 miles more than Steve )
x + x + 4 = 26 ( the sum of their distance is 26 )
2x + 4 = 26 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 11
Steve ran 11 mies and Kevin ran 11 + 4 = 15 miles
check 11 + 15 = 26
